  No pros to this software.

  "Who needs the expensive CAD Systems anymore?"

  October 21, 2008  |   By ArchiArtschi

  Version: Ashampoo 3D CAD Architecture 3 1.08

  Pros

  It is abolutely hard to believe that this program has this low price.
  Most CAD System base on vector oriented works, line by line. This software handles a complete 3D model that you can work on in any view, 2D, 3D, Cross sections, view...

  Cons

  1. Outstanding roof funtkion, any polygone side can be edited and will be updated be the software
  2. Design in 3D with real time shadows. Thought I was playing DOOM..
  3. Automatic cross sections with height measures
  4. Window construction methods

  Summary

  Needs a good computer, but is absolutely object oriented, interconnected: Change floor No. 17, and 1-16 and 18-24 will be updated as well, great wood work methods.

  "New architecture program for beginers and professionals"

  October 16, 2008  |   By Libor_z_Prahy

  Version: Ashampoo 3D CAD Architecture 3 1.08

  Pros

  1. Importing from free Caligari trueSpace7.6 (objects and scenes) and saving as .CYG objects.
  2. Future upgrading by professional plugins from CygniCon GmbH
  company - download on www.cygnicon.de
  3. Expandable library of objects and materials

  Cons

  I have been working with this program since its release on July 2008 and I did not found any feature or function which I don't like.

  Summary

  I really like this program and I think that it will become very popular outside Europe. It was developed by German company, but you can install it in English. I have found English translation (both manual with helps and program) very good. The price is very fine for all people and you can upgrade it to your professional needs by plugins developed by Cygnicon GmbH and other German companies. I hope that later CygniCon company release SDK documentation and files for the development of plugins by other companies. I really recommend to all visitors of this web page to download and to try this new and very perspective program. After installation you find a lot of already created projects and really large library of objects and materials.
